Patent EP-1164395-A2 (EP)
Inventor: HENGELMOLEN ARIE
IPC: G02B6/40
Filed: 2001-05-16
Abstract: In a prior art multiple-fiber optical connector, it was
difficult to easily and securely insert and mount a plurality
of optical fibers led out from the multiple-fiber optical fiber
ribbon. Further, in such a prior art multiple-fiber optical
connector, it was possible to prevent a transmission loss from
being generated due to local deformation of optical fibers,
which is produced in mounting optical fibers, and a connection
loss from being generated due to hardening and contraction of
an adhesive agent, which are in the final assembling process.
In order to solve such problems, a structure of an optical
connector was designed as shown below; that is, a tapered
portion (3) is provided in a fiber ribbon insertion hole (2)
in order to narrow the width thereof, and the tip end (33) of
a sheathed portion of a multiple-fiber optical fiber ribbon
(31) is engaged in and stopped in the intermediate portion (8)
of the tapered portion (3), whereby the insertion position is
determined. In addition, in order to guide the led out optical
fiber (32) continuously from the tapered portion (3), a conical
introducing portion (4) having an adequate diameter is provided,
and it becomes possible to collectively insert a plurality of
optical fibers securely into appointed minute holes for
inserting optical fibers. Furthermore, no insertion window for
an adhesive agent is necessary.

Patent EP-1209472-A2 (EP)
Inventor: HICKMAN BARTON T
IPC: G01R13/20
Filed: 2001-11-12
Abstract: The invention involves storing information about the probe frequency response in
the probe itself. The information preferably consists of a set of one or more
characteristic frequency response data points. Each data point includes at least the gain
of the probe at a given frequency. More preferably, each data point includes the complex
transfer characteristic of a probe (S21 in Fig. 2) and optionally the complex output
reflectivity of the probe (S22 in Fig. 2) and the frequency (F in Fig. 2) at which the data
applies. A variable number of frequency points can be stored, as necessary, to
adequately describe the probe's response. The probe also preferably stores a header
containing the number of stored data points. The invention readily extends to probes
having multiple gain settings or multiple bandwidth settings, by simply storing multiple
sets of S21, S22 and F data. When the probe is attached to a scope, the scope reads the
frequency response information from the probe in accordance with any suitable
communications format and protocol. Using information about its own frequency
response and input voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR), the scope undertakes to adjust
its frequency response (by which is meant to add or subtract gain at high frequency),
thereby compensating for the frequency response of the probe and optimizing overall
system frequency response.

Abstract: The present invention makes a diagnosis of a patient by detecting
changes in the state of the patient appearing in an
electrocardiogram from a variation in characteristic quantities
repeatedly appearing in the electrocardiogram, for example, an R-R
interval in an early stage and reliably. The ordinary distribution
calculation section 3 receives the electrocardiogram data measured
for a period INT1, calculates characteristic quantities repeatedly
appearing in the electrocardiogram as time-series data and
generates a set C of differences between neighboring elements of the
time-series data. The ordinary distribution calculation section 3
further obtains m subsets by repeating m times the processing of
randomly collecting n elements from this set C, and calculates an
average value a and standard deviation 6 of the set of average values
of these m subsets by assuming that the set of average values has
normal distribution indicating the ordinary state of the variations in
the characteristic quantities. The state detection section 4 calculates
a diagnostic set CT from the electrocardiogram data for a period
shorter than the period INT1 in the same way as for the
above-described set C, and the diagnosis section 5 compares the
difference between the average value of this set CT and the average
value of the ordinary distribution with the standard deviation 6 and
makes a diagnosis.

Abstract: A process for making a pants-type diaper without

composed of a body fluid absorbent pad member 4 curved in a
U-shape, a front waist member 2 and a rear waist member 3
extending around front and rear waist-halves, respectively.
The front and rear waist members 2, 3 are obtained by feeding
first and second elastic members in parallel to each other in
a machine direction so as to describe substantially sinusoidal
curves, respectively, securing these elastic members to one
surface of a web fed in the machine direction and then
transversely bisecting the web between the first and second

symmetric to each other about a center line bisecting the web
but phase-shifted with respect to each other in the machine
direction by half a cycle of the substantially sinusoidal curve.
